Laura Elise Cohen, age 60, of Mundelein, IL, cherished sister of Richard Scott (Gitte Hansen) Cohen and Dan (Micki) Cohen; loving aunt of Tara (Ryan) Kisner, Josh Cohen, Claudia Cohen, and Eric Cohen; adoring great aunt of Ella and Kailynn Kisner; and treasured friend to many passed away on May 31, 2024. She was preceded in death by her parents Arnold Lewis Cohen and Helen Degen Cohen.
Laura was a respected attorney, but her family and friends were the center of her universe. She enjoyed traveling to places near and far, dining, going to sporting events (especially Cubs games), fitness activities at the gym, attending shows, and pursuing other activities with her many friends and family members. She worked to promote literary works of her mother after her passing, with help from members of the RHINO poetry group. She will be dearly missed. Family and friends are organizing a Celebration of Life event to be held in late summer or early fall. Details will be shared via social media and on Laura's memorial webpage at www.goldmanfuneralgroup.com. People are encouraged to share their condolences and post photos on this webpage. In lieu of flowers, contributions may be made to the American Heart Association, www.heart.org, or American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (ASPCA), www.aspca.org.

Laura was a true loyal friend. We had a lot of good times together and were roomates for 12 years. We got together quite often but mostly enjoyed our News Years Day tradition of going to lunch. We would sometimes go out and watch the Cubs or Bears. In earlier days, she would sometimes come to my parent's home at holiday time, and my father enjoyed having conversations with her. She was like family. Hard to sum up a long friendship. She will be dearly missed.
